No, it doesn't. Don't be a tool.
We can’t have Specter backing card check again.
There's no guarantees with Specter. He would have backed it had he not been up for re-election. Remember he voted for the porkulus bill.
That’s what’s at stake here.
No, what's at stake here is draining the swamp of RINOs and Rats who are destroying Washington. Specter is pushing 80 years old and is battling cancer - why support him?
Therefore, public support must continue on the sitting senator.
What do you think primaries are for?
Once he loses the primary, then the GOP can endorse and support the nominee. This move is purely political.
Again, no guarantees. Crossover union Dems will vote for Specter. That's why the RNC should stay the F out of the race. Personally, Toomey should go the 3rd party route. I'd rather have a young Dem in the seat than Specter.
To be quite frank, I’d rather see a Rino than a young dem. The idea that a young dem is preferred to a Rino is what got us to where we are. And yes, we have a primary system and we can get the Rino’s out, but we have to vote during the primaries to get that done.
If the GOP does as you seem to suggest, then the GOP will be playing checkers while the rats chess. Do we always want them to outflank us? We have to be strategic about these things, with a goal in mind. Otherwise, we’ll always end up losing.
